This may be the case. When this article was written, I had it on reasonable authority that these items would be legal, as the rules indicate, generally, that internal modifications and parts are acceptable (low mass carrier, trigger, etc.), and the gas block remains very close to original appearance. Furthermore the gas system still remains fully operational. However, perhaps something new has developed…

I’m in the process of not only building a 7.62x39r AR, I’m also building a lower for my brother (active duty Navy), so he gets as much practice from a reliable 5.56 NATO chambered weapon as possible before he returns Southwest Asia. I think the book would make some great reading material for him on deployment.

Planning on building a NM AR-15. This book would be great to have.

This is a great build. I had this idea last year, but was told by the rules committee at the CMP that the JP Low Mass bolt and the JP Adjustable Gas Block front sight would not be legal for CMP competition. Please clarify.

As stated elsewhere, I do not own a modern sporting rifle (aka AR-15) at this time. I think that the book “Gunsmithing the AR-15″ would be a great reference book for when I do own one (notice I said when not if).
